Train New Disciples to Obey Jesus

(Adapted from a mastery process developed by Family Bible Church and Troy Cooper.)

Break into smaller groups as necessary for full participation within available time.
Share highs and lows from the past week.
Each retell the memory verse and story from the week before.
Each report how they shared and obeyed the story, and what happened.
Assess with the group (or individual), based on overall obedience over the past week, whether to repeat the previous lesson or proceed with the next.
Storyboard the appropriate lesson from the list below.
Each list or map lost individuals in their sphere of influence and pray for them in pairs.
Homework: Daily read/rehearse the memory verse and story aloud, pray for a chance to share the story, share it, then report to another group member how it went.

Read the story as a group and outline it.
Each draw six boxes and read the story again together, with each writing and/or drawing it in the boxes.
Each retell the story to a partner, referencing only your boxes; then swap roles and repeat.
Discuss the story with these SOS questions:
What does it Say about God, What should I Obey? What should I Say to others?
Each share what they will personally obey from the story.
Each identify with whom they will share the story and the Three Circles Gospel presentation in the coming week.
